ACQUONETTA SATTERWHITE

On August 27, 2022, Acquonetta “Netta” Ljuan Satterwhite left her earthly home to be present with the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8). Netta was born in Queen City, TX, but her family moved to Texarkana, TX where she attended public school graduating from Liberty-Eylau High School in 1969. She continued her education at East Texas State University (now Texas A&M at Commerce) where she became a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, graduating in 1973 with a degree in elementary education although most of her career was in business working for the oil and cellular industry in both Dallas and Virginia. She lived in Oklahoma City for five years with her husband, Charles, before they moved back to Texarkana where they had been childhood friends. She is survived by her husband of 22 years, Charles Satterwhite. Together they have five children: sons, Corey M. (Nephritiri) Braxton, Anthony Moore, Torraine Smith and Dwayne (Theresa) Satterwhite; daughter, Krystal Moore; five grandchildren, Corey A. Braxton, Mahogany (Donelle) Hoof, Jalen Robinson, Aiden Moore, Layla Satterwhite; and two great-grandchildren. Preceding her into the presence of the Lord are her parents, Willie H. and Betty White Braxton, and her sisters, Elizabeth Ann Braxton and Debra Braxton Guinn. Visitation for Netta will be 5-7 PM Thursday, September 1 and Funeral Services will be Friday, September 2, at 12:30 PM at Mt. Orange Baptist Church 2510 W 10th Street where Netta accepted Christ at an early age and served Him until she went to college and continued to serve upon her return to Texarkana in 2005. The Music Department of the churches she attended welcomed her with open arms because of her ability to play the piano and for her melodious God-given voice.
